GOLD Gold has traded in a very narrow $5 high/low trading range today, with $1,239 being the high and $1,234 per ounce being the low, on very light trading volume.

GOLD This morning Gold reached $1,242 but couldn’t find buyers to support the breakout, so it fell back below $1,238 per ounce. Gold’s inability to rally back quickly after hitting yesterday’s low of $1,225 concerns me. I believe we will test the low of $1,225 again very soon. The last two times the Gold price turned short term bullish and...
